Malaysian politicians and feminists are furious about a new "Obedient Wives Club" that urges women to provide "prostitute-like" sex to avoid domestic violence and keep their husbands faithful, reports Reuters. The group, started by a group of Muslim women who also support polygamy, says women must believe in God and be hot in the sack to keep the peace. "A man married to a woman who is as good or better than a prostitute in bed has no reason to stray. A woman must do all she can to ensure his desires are met," Rohaya Mohamed tells the Straits Times.

The proclamation has unleashed a storm of criticism. "To hinge fidelity, domestic violence, and the fulfillment of a husband's responsibilities purely on a wife's capacity to be obedient, stimulate sexual arousal is not only demeaning to wives, but to husbands as well," said Shahrizat Jalil, the minister for Women, Family and Community Development. Added the director of rights group Sisters-in-Islam: "Abusive men often use women's behavior as a sick justification, but in the end, their actions are their responsibility."

One would think there is some problem in the bedroom department to suggest such statement from this womens group ? What that could be it doesn't say. Are women not supposed to enjoy sex or are they not doing it that often for other reasons? I don't know what the dynamics of the problems is there. I just figured out 20 minutes of begging in considered foreplay sometimes, just hurry up, she's got things to do. : )

There is something to this. My wife and I have a wonderful marriage. We're both 59 or older. My prior wives were so sexually controlling when they wanted sex (never wanted it as much as I did), that it became one of the reasons we divorced. My third wife is wonderful. We have learned that sex is the center of our marriage. We never deprive each other, there is a requirement to have a certain amount of sex each week and game and roll playing makes marriage/sex much better. Men who are sexually satisfied and women who make sex an ever interesting escapade have happier marriages. My opinion.
